Define CR Code (Carriage Return)
The Define CR Code option controls the action of the printer when it receives a
Carriage Return code (X'0D') from the host computer. If this feature is enabled,
each time the printer receives a carriage return, it inserts an additional Line Feed
code (X'0A') into the data stream. Do not use this feature if the host computer
sends line feeds to the printer.
v CR = CR (the default). Does not insert an extra line feed after each carriage
return.
v CR = CR + LF. Inserts an extra line feed after each carriage return.
Auto LF
This option defines the printer actions when print data is received past the forms
width setting.
v Enable (the default). Performs an automatic carriage return and line feed when
data is received past the forms width.
v Disable. Discards any data past the forms width.
Define LF Code (Line Feed)
The Define LF Code option controls the action of the printer when it receives a
Line Feed code (X'0A') from the host computer. If this feature is enabled, each time
the printer receives a Line Feed, it inserts an additional Carriage Return code
(X'0D') into the data stream. This feature is required if the host computer does not
send carriage returns to the printer.
v LF = LF (the default). Does not add a carriage return with a line feed.
v LF = CR + LF. Adds an extra carriage return with each line feed.
Printer Select
v Disable (the default). Ignores the ASCII DC1 and DC3 control codes.

the printer when a DC3 control code is received.
